Van life as we call it takes us to all sorts of beautiful places across the UK (and when we're lucky, beyond) and on our travels we often come across different things that spark a discussion and debate among ourselves - which, if we're doing a video, we inevitably film! This was one of those weeks, where we explored the beautiful seaside town of Aldeburgh, Suffolk.

With its colourful homes, long shingle beach, quaint shops and seafood stalls, Aldeburgh is truly idyllic. But we couldn't help but notice one thing very quickly - the sheer amount of holiday homes. Many of which seemed to be empty. We discuss this at length in the video and express some strongly held opinions on the subject. Of course, there are many layers to discussions like these, so feel free to let us know if you think differently and why in the comments, or perhaps you agree. It's just an opinion after all, and we're all full of them!

That aside, we very much enjoyed walking around this peaceful town where everything you look at is postcard worthy. We also take on a walk in the wider countryside, enjoy a pretty picturesque park up for the night, and I (Dan) delve into the history of the Martello Towers.
